Answer:

X=-16/3 or 5.33

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is y=mx+c

Substitute in values for gradient

6=-4×3+c

C=18

Y=3x+18

Substitute to find x

2=3x+18

-16=3x

X=-16/3

The slope is defined as

m=\dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\dfrac{6-2}{-4-x}

So, we have the follwing equation:

\dfrac{6-2}{-4-x} = 3 \iff 4 = 3(-4-x) \\\iff 4=-12-3x \iff16=-3x \iff x = -\dfrac{16}{3}

Use the slope formula to find the slope of the line passing through the given points.
n200080 [17]

Answer:

The slope is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope using

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (-5-1)/(4-2)

   = -6/2

    = -3

James estimated the total cost of groceries to be $50. The actual cost of the groceries is $65. What is the percent error? Round
Alex777 [14]

To get percent error you take actual-predicted and divide by the actual then multiply by 100 to get the percent.

65-50=15

15/60=0.25

0.25 times 100 =25%
